I have two non-profit sites that are Joomla: The Salvation Army's Southern California Camp Mt Crags at m Uses Community Builder and Gallery2 and a Thai Foundation which is a home for homeless kids at m (the Thai portion isn't fully upgraded to Joomla yet). Both are using my modifications of existing...

That's the second time you said that in this thread...

Open Source Matters is a Foundation? When did that happen?

So, do you know something the rest of us do not or are you speculating?

The books says the logo is not copyright free. OK, but, who owns the copyright? What is the proper citation? What kind of copyright is it? Logos and slogans aren't copyrighted, their trademarked. The Open Source Matters Foundation owns the trademark (or, to probably be more accurate, the OSMF has a...

2 Things:

The outside space requirement is too high. For example, the Joomla website itself is out of compliance. Yet it looks fine.

A truly Stupid Question

I can find no where else to ask this - and if it doesn't get answered I won't loose any sleep, but curious minds want to know: Why "Developer" instead of "Forge"?

Re: Mambo for companies and Joomla for Non-profit organisations ?

Yes, in a sense, you will choose between Mambo and Joomla! or between Joomla! and some other way to create a web site. We here have chosen to use and support Joomla!. Both Mambo and Joomla! can be used for either corporations or non-profits. That is not the deciding factor. Joomla! was created by th...

There have been so many great logos submitted. I still would vote for the Degray one, personally, but there are many that are more than fine. I also really like the African shield, though it could use some work to make sure it's clear it's not a bug. I see a lot of support and variants on the hand. ...

Re: Project Name Chosen- Discussion

I think its very clever. Everyone is going to notice the name, it's not going to be mistaken for anything else - like a dance or some other software, and it is short, easy, and fun to say. In addition, the team was able to get the trademark registered and there are a ton of available domains for it....

Hell, if you wanted to, you could completely take over the foundation and divorce it from Miro if you wanted to, and had enough support from the other members to do so. If the community is so much in agreement, it seems like it would have been a cakewalk to simply change the foundation to whatever ...

Might as well chime in also. I agree that a foundation is a good idea. I would suggest it to the core team for the future of this development. When I represented Mambo at the SoCal Linux Expo in Feb 2005, I made up flyers to hand out specifically drawing attention to the re-involvement of Miro and w...
